ASAP Foundation (2012), conceived by Architects Amit and Sunil in pursuit of contributing to society towards intellectual growth. The idea is to trigger the society to next level not just in terms of money but in terms of emotional and ethical grounds, thereby making this world a better place to live in.

It has been a beautiful journey to date with a lot of helping hands. Special thanks to Ar Niriti, Ar Neeru and Rachna for their extraordinary contribution in laying this foundation.

Being Architects, not only entitles us to be responsible for creating suitable environment and spaces but also makes us realize duties beyond that. Conducting workshops is one of the source that provides ASAP with a platform, where we interact with people from different fields and make them experience an extraordinary journey.

For expanding ASAP to reach maximum sections of society, architect Priyanka and Rajeev have joined in. Together we have collaborated towards ‘100 days Finishing School’ where individuals from different walks of life will learn/unlearn/relearn to prepare for a fine, programmed and focussed future.
